Tuesday, June 29, 2010. ENGLISH AFTERNOON TEA LEMON MELT AWAY COOKIES. These cookies may be my all time favorite. I make them about 1 inch wide, so they are a perfect bite of sweetness, with a lemon tang. Actually they are very good iced for a week or so, but I recommend icing them no earlier than a day ahead for a special occasion. Lemon Melt Away Cookies. 3/4 cup unsalted butter, room temperature. 1/3 cup confectioner's sugar. 1 teaspoon lemon zest. 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice. Divide dou...

Thursday, January 28, 2010. My old friend Martha told me that the Stromboli recipe I posted yesterday sounded complicated, so I decided to add an easier one that I first made years ago. It is not as fancy as the first one, but still very good and will be a hit with those eating. Frozen bread dough (1 loaf for each stromboli). 3 meats to equal 1 cup: hard salami or pepperoni, ham and 1/2 pound crumbeld fried hot Italian sausage or sausage of your choice. Serves 4 to 6 as a sandwich. Find recipe in Sauces.

Friday, April 2, 2010. KRISTEN'S CREAM OF ROASTED CORN AND POBLANO PEPPER SOUP. Kristen on right is married to my nephew Rob. They have three lovely daughters, from left to right, Samantha, Taylor and Brittaney. Kristen is a wonderful cook and shares this great recipe. Poblano. Peppers may be my new favorite pepper. Spring is finally here, since we had 12 inches of snow on the first day of spring, I couldn't very well take pictures of spring flowers in front of my stone cottage until now. 1 onion, chopped.

Monday, February 22, 2010. PEANUT BUTTER ICE CREAM PIE. This may be my all time favorite dessert. I found the recipe over 30 years ago in a Pine Bluff Junior League cookbook called 'Southern Accent'.

Peanut Butter Ice Cream Pie. 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs. 1/2 cup melted butter. 1 quart vanilla ice cream.

Sunday, March 21, 2010. KAMUT AND WILD RICE SALAD. This is a grain that I hadn't tried before. Kamut is an ancient grain that is only raised organically. I first heard it mentioned as a very important health food by Dr. Oz on Good Morning America. I like grains in salads or used as a substitute for rice. We all need more fiber in our diet and this is a good one to try. Kamut and Wild Rice Salad. 1 cup wild rice. 1 cup dried cranberries. 2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped. 1/2 cup orange juice. I purcha...

Tuesday, August 3, 2010. CURRANT SCONES and DEVONSHIRE CREAM. An afternoon tea wouldn't be a proper tea without scones. There are cream scones made with heavy cream, which are very rich. I prefer a more American biscuit type of scone with the addition of dried fruit such as currants or raisins. In fact, if you research scones you will find dozens of different of kinds, with apples, buttermilk or a savory type with cheese, just to name a few. Where Scottish kings were crowned. Cream and Currant Scones.
